Bhubaneswar, Dec 21: Stung by criticism from all quarters for their tardy and slipshod investigation into the much-talked about case relating to the death of Asutosh Mohanty alias Rishi, an engineering student, with the alleged involvement of BMC Mayor Anant Naryan Jena, the Commissionerate Police, YB Khurania yesterday said they are under no pressure in conducting investigation into the case. He also said the investigation is on in the second case which has been registered in Capital Police Station to ascertain full facts.
Earlier in the day, proprietor of www.niakhunta.com Pradip Pandey, appeared before the Capital Police Station. Talking to media persons after returning from the police station, he said he had sought a copy of the FIR which was filed against him by the BMC Mayor. The FIR has been registered under section 500 of the IPC which means defamation. Talking about the genuineness of the video clipping, Pandey said the police will get the details only after it is examined in the forensic laboratory. Pandey also said the video which has been circulated in YouTube was recorded two years ago.
